While the Dolphins continue their search for the team’s next general manager, they’re also working to find a new offensive coordinator as well, and will reportedly interview another candidate today. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Miami Dolphins will interview Green Bay Packers quarterback coach Ben McAdoo for their offensive coordinator vacancy.

McAdoo served as Green Bay’s quarterbacks coach the past two years, working with one of the league’s best QBs in three-time Pro Bowler and 2011 NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers. Before that, he worked six seasons as Green Bay’s tight ends coach, working under current Dolphins head coach Joe Philbin when Philbin was the offensive coordinator for the Packers. He’s also worked as an assistant for the San Francisco 49ers and New Orleans Saints.

According to sources, this is Philbin’s top choice for OC. I’ve read several interviews about McAdoo and he comes highly regarded as an offensive minded guy with great position coaching skills. I see McAdoo as the most likely to accept the position if offered, and here’s why. With a new GM being brought in, and Philbin on a short leash to get the team to the playoffs this year, if Philbin fails to do that, then there will more than likely be a head coach change next season. We all know that when a GM brings in his own guy at HC, he will also likely change coordinators, making the present OC job a 1 year job if it’s not successful this year. That would leave the present candidates with OC experience, that are interviewing now, less likely to accept a job that may be limited to only one year. Therefore, I see McAdoo as the most likely candidate to get the job, but I don’t see that as a bad thing. I believe he is qualified to do the job, plus he will definitely be an asset in the further development of Tannehill.

This is the best all around choice for o.c. so far when considering the focal points for this offense, especially in developing a new franchise QB in Ryan Tannehill. Furthermore, the teams he’s worked for are solid successful franchises when looking through a contemporary lens. I say this should be signed, sealed, delivered.
